Anyone have 3.92s they don't need?
Anyone have some 3.92's they don't need? Maybe someone who moved up to something else?

I have an OEM set for the rear but the ring gear has one tooth with a 1/2 inch chip in it. Well, it was running fine before I replaced it with a 4.10.
$100 bucks if your interested and I'm 10 miles south of Austin. |
Sig says 3.55's?
Do you know if I can just replace that ring gear? |
'Tis a shame you weren't looking about 8 months ago. I got tired of tripping over the box in storage and needed cash to pay Xmas credit card bills and sold my 3.92s (19k miles on 'em, mint condition) in the classifieds on here for $150 shipped - FRONT & REAR sets. Guy who bought them only wanted the rears (4x2 owner) but I wouldn't break 'em up. He bought the set, if memory serves, this guy inquired about them about 20 minutes after I posted 'em up, and Pay Pal'd me the $ the next day...

Used gears in a daily driver = bad idea. You'll never get the pattern back to exactly where they wore in the first time.

Yep, I've never heard where you couldn't run used gears, my old man, uncle and grandfather were mechanics by trade, they even ran cars at the local track from the '60s thru early '80s. They were forever swapping gear sets.
I know my old man put a used set of 5.sumthin' gears in an old CJ5 he had easily ran them 100k+ miles. Only thing I've ever been told is that the ring and pinion had to remain together, couldn't mix and match, so I'd say no-go on getting the set with the broken tooth and trying to find just a ring... |

Alright, I'll just pick up some new gears if that's the path I take. No biggie.
